Warnings: Instructions for use
MARZOCCHI forks are based on an advanced technology coming from the company’s years long experience in the professional mountain bike
industry.
For the best results, we recommend inspecting and cleaning the area below the dust seal and the stanchion tube after every use and lubricating the
parts with some silicone oil.
MARZOCCHI forks usually offer the best performances since the very first rides. Notwithstanding this, a short running-in period may be necessary
(5-10 hours) to adjust the internal couplings. This precaution will lengthen your fork’s life and guarantee its best performances.
We recommend changing the oil at least every 100 hours.
The forks with a polished finish must be treated periodically with polishing paste to keep the exterior shining like new.
Warnings: General safety rules
After disassembling the forks, always use new, original Marzocchi seals when reassembling.
To tighten two bolts or nuts that are near each other, always follow the sequence 1-2-1, and tighten to the required tightening torque.
Before reassembly, wash all new and old components and dry them with some compressed air, making sure there are neither breaks nor burrs.
Never use flammable or corrosive solvents when cleaning the forks, as these could damage the fork’s seals. If you must use a solvent, use
biodegradable detergents that are not corrosive, non-flammable, or have a high flash point.
Before reassembling, always lubricate those components that are in contact with the fork’s oil.
If you are planning not to use your forks for a long period of time, always lubricate those components that are in contact with the fork’s oil.
Always collect and keep any lubricants, solvents, or detergents, which are not completely biodegradable in the environment. These materials should
be kept in appropriate containers, and disposed of according to local laws.
Always grease the seal lips before reassembling.
All of the components of Marzocchi forks require the use of metric tools. Use only metric tools. Imperial (US) tools may have similar sizes, but can
damage the bolts, making them impossible to loosen or tighten.
When using a screwdriver to assemble or disassemble metal stop rings, O-rings, sliding bushings, or seal segments, avoid scratching or cutting the
components with the screwdriver tip.
Do not carry out any maintenance and / or adjustment operations that are not explained in this manual.
Only use original Marzocchi spare parts.
Before servicing the fork, we recommend washing the fork thoroughly.
Work in a clean, organized, and well-lit place. If possible, avoid servicing your forks outdoors.
Carefully check to see that your work area is free of dust and metal shavings from any component of the forks.
Never modify your fork in any way.
Warnings: Fitting the fork onto the frame
The fork is supplied with “A-Head Set” steer tube to be cut to size according to frame being used.
Fitting the fork onto the bike frame is a very delicate operation that must be carried out at one of our service centres only.
The assembling on the frame and the adjustment of the steer tube must be carried out following the instructions of the steering set manufacturer.
A wrong installation can be dangerous for the rider.
Marzocchi does not guarantee the assembly and accepts no liability for damage and/or accidents arising from a wrong
installation.
The steer tube must be pressed into the crown; its replacement must be carried out by one of our service centres using the adequate tools.
A wrong installation of the steer tube into the crown may cause the rider to lose the control of the bike and lead to serious
personal injury.
Warnings: Installing the disk brake
Installing the brake system is a delicate and critical operation that must be carried out by an authorized Marzocchi Service Center.
Marzocchi is not responsible for the installation and accepts no liability for damage and/or accidents arising from this operation.
Improper installation of a disk brake system can overstress the caliper mountings, which may cause the caliper mountings to break, resulting in loss
of control of the bicycle, an accident, personal injury, or death. Be sure that the brake system installation is also performed in strict compliance with
the instructions provided by the brake system manufacturer.
Improper installation can result in an accident, personal injury, or death.
Use only brake systems that comply with the forks specifications.
Make sure, after installation, that the brake cable of the brake system is correctly connected
to the proper mounting (A).
The brake cable must never touch the crown and stanchions.
Warnings: Assembling the wheel on forks with standard drop-out
Install the wheel following the instructions of the manufacturer.

For a correct operation of the fork, install the wheel and proceed with the following checks:
Check the correct fork-wheel alignment by fully compressing the fork a few times. The wheel should not come into contact with any parts of the
fork.
Lift the front wheel above the ground; turn the wheel a few times to verify the correct alignment and the distance from the disk brake. Read the
instructions of the brake system manufacturer for the correct specifications.
Warnings: Assembling the wheel on forks with ø20mm through-axle

Setting: General rules for calibration
By carefully calibrating the damping system you can get the maximum performance out of the same.
This paragraph indicates the sequence of operations to perform to set up the Marzocchi forks correctly.
In order to find the best settings for you, you will need to try several times to understand where and how to make adjustments. When doing so,
please ride in an open area, free from traffic, obstacles and other hazards.
The optimal setting is influenced by the geometry of the frame of the mountain bike, the weight of the cyclist, the type of terrain the bike will be
used on and the type of obstacles you have to deal with, but also by subjective factors associated with your riding style; therefore it is impossible to
provide objective data on the desired settings.
Nevertheless by carefully following the instructions below you will soon be able to find the optimal setting for you.
The shock absorber must be calibrated simply by using one adjuster at a time, following the order explained, noting the operations and any result
step-by-step.
During setting don't force the adjusters beyond their limit of travel and don't exceed the max recommended air pressure.
To keep the pressure inside the fork’s legs, only use the special MARZOCCHI pump with pressure gauge.
The use of any other pump can compromise the inflating operation and cause malfunction or damage to the fork, resulting in an
accident, personal injury or death.
Once the correct setting has been found, we recommend noting the number of clicks or turns of the adjuster with respect to the "fully closed"
position (adjuster fully clockwise) for a faster re-setting of your fork in case of need.
Setting: SAG
SAG means the fork bottoming under the biker's weight.

How to measure the SAG:
Follow these simple steps to measure the SAG.
On the leg portion of the fork, measure the distance between the lower crown and the dust seal (see
Picture A). Note this value as “H1”.
While sitting on the bike, repeat the measurement (see picture B). Note this value as “H2".
SAG = H1 - H2
How to find the best percent SAG:
The best percent SAG is 15-20% for Cross-country and All Mountain forks and 25-30% for Freeride and
Downhill forks.
In order to calculate the best SAG for your own fork, you will need to make the following calculation:
SAG = T x S (T = total travel; S = suggested sinking percentage).
Setting: Spring preload with air
The optimal spring preloading is the one that lets you obtain the desired SAG under the biker's weight.
Use the MARZOCCHI pump with pressure gauge to inflate the fork legs.
Using inadequate tools may lead to a wrong inflation and result in a malfunctioning or damage to the fork.
If you need to reduce the leg pressure, simply push the valve pin down with a pointed tool such as a small pin extractor.
For both fork legs:
To increase the pressure in the fork leg:
Remove the protection cap.
Tighten the threaded pump adapter on air valve.
Inflate till reaching the pressure you wish (see table).
Refit the protection cap.
The pressure values in the table are given as a mere example and can be changed to meet the biker’s riding style and the track condition.
Setting: Rebound adjustment
Right fork leg:

With the rebound adjuster you can control the return speed of the fork after compression.
The right rebound speed setting makes the bike stable letting it follow the variations in the terrain and any obstacles.
If the fork setting is too reactive this will make the rear suspension instable and the mountain bike will have a tendency to snake. A too slow setting
however will cause problems when dealing with multiple obstacles where the suspension can't return to its fully extended position fast enough
between one obstacle and the next.
Using a small pin extractor, push the valve pin down to eliminate the right leg pressure.
With a 21mm socket spanner, unscrew and remove the protection cap (A).
Fit the hexagonal rod (B) supplied into the hole of the adjustment screw (C) in the stanchion tube.
Turning the adjustment screw counter-clockwise increases the hydraulic damping and the fork will be
slower during the rebound phase.
Turning the adjustment screw clockwise decreases the hydraulic damping and the fork will be more
reactive during the rebound phase.
Once the setting has been made, refit the protection cap and tighten it to the recommended torque (10
Nm ±1).
Restore the recommended air pressure.
Do not force the adjuster beyond its limit of travel.
